Dear Stephen F Friend,
As we wrap up the year, I’ve chosen to reflect on what truly matters most for the brand — and that is you, Dear Friend of Stephen F!
It’s +10 years ago the brand arrived in New York and I’m extremely grateful for all the support we’ve received from co-workers, the collaborations we’ve made, production partners, stylists, brand ambassadors and clients.
Our time in the city has provided us with great opportunities for new collaborations and even exciting ventures. Clients have evolved into team members, and even into trusted partners and friends.
We all know there are countless fashion brands out there, but as we highlighted in an ad earlier this year, our message (the essence of it) remains clear:
“We may not be the biggest, but we can assure you that our heart beats stronger for you than many fashion brands all together. “
That’s our promise — to give everything we possibly can.
The feedback we receive is truly amazing, and hearing such positive words from distinguished gentlemen not only boosts our confidence but fills us with a great sense of warmth and love when choosing Stephen F.
Here are a few messages we’ve received during the year.
– “I have many of your suits that remind me of your style and grace.”
– “I have been speaking about your brand to many friends who are reaching out about the jacket.”
– “And xx loved the jacket! Thank you!”
– “Great! Still loving the suit 7 years later”
– “Teaching at Cornell last week in your blazer.”
– “Moccasins hit the streets of NYC!”
– “Stephen, I know you will appreciate how good the coat continues to make me look! My son’s wedding, last week..“
– “Stephen! The sharpest menswear in the game!!“
– “Met world’s most powerful banker in a Stephen F shirt and blazer!”
This is the ad we did, where our very best partners and important people for Stephen F were mentioned (of course you included).
Just like in previous years, we proudly participated in the Blue Jacket Fashion Show in both NYC and LA.
The Blue Jacket Fashion show is a national awareness campaign to demystify and create a platform to openly discuss men’s cancer issues.
This time in New York, we teamed up with our friend Alex Lundqvist — one of the top 10 male models of all time — wearing a custom-made outfit with a clear message.
Actor Alex Garfin from the hit series Superman & Lois walked the Los Angeles show in our one-of-a-kind tuxedo.
The King (of New York) was also rocking our designs. Pictured here below in a custom-made, hand-crafted suede and leather bomber jacket.
I want to thank Henrik a little extra this year for all his support during the years and especially for being there more than a decade ago when I arrived in the city.
To wrap up, sharing some pure inspiration for the upcoming season.
Happy holidays to all of you!
Stephen F ❤️ You!
